Sixty Glorious Years is an exercise in the creation of iconography, both for Victoria and its star, Anna Neagle (who subsequently became known as 'Regal Neagle'). Just as Elizabeth I commissioned artists to create flattering iconic images for public consumption, so this film performs a similar function, for Neagle is more beautiful than the real life Victoria. Controversial events (such as the 'Irish problem') are omitted and unpleasant aspects of Victoria's character (her petulance, arrogance, favouritism and 'right to privilege') are glossed over as endearing little 'whims'. Albert acts as a moderating influence when she goes too far.
The film followed a year after the highly successful Victoria the Great (d. Herbert Wilcox, 1937). Again the screenplay is by Miles Malleson and Robert Vansittart, and many of the supporting cast (the cream of acting talent of period) repeat their roles, this time for the colour cameras. This was the first full length Technicolor film of cinematographer Freddie Young, who captures the spectacle of royal weddings, grand balls and opulent interiors, with scenes actually filmed at royal palaces. Vivid battle scenes, set in Alexander Korda's empire territory (Sevastopol and the Sudan), rival those in The Four Feathers (d. Zoltan Korda 1939).
The title music sets the tone: a regal choir sings over a shot of the crown. Elgar's 1901 'Pomp and Circumstance' march is heard during the diamond jubilee celebrations and, as Victoria's coffin lies in state, the film concludes with Anthony Collins' stately music accompanied by the text of Rudyard Kipling's 'Lest we forget'. Combined with the emotional appeal of scenes of Victoria connecting with her 'ordinary folk', this is stirring stuff.
The film connects with contemporary events of 1938. The release of two celebratory royal films was intended to boost public affection for the monarchy in the wake of Edward VIII's abdication. Anglo-German relations were another touchy subject. With another war on the horizon, influential voices wanted appeasement, and the film could be seen to fit that agenda. Victoria herself was of mainly German descent, nicknamed 'the grandmother of Europe', while Albert is a 'good German', charmingly played by Anton Walbrook as a cultured, decent man.
Sixty Glorious Years now seems unduly formal and reverential. Had movies existed during Victoria's reign (they only emerged at the end) this might have been the kind of film produced. Unlike Mrs Brown (d. John Madden, 1997), it is all so very 'Victorian'.

不管怎样解释，剧情都很奇怪把，森宫完全就是为了带娃而被骗结婚的嘛，十几年连老婆面都见不到，扔个娃就跑了，太惨了，角色全员天使。有十元的剧衣品都很不错，4y也相当好看，给三星把。
后面确实是蛮感人的，但前一个小时真的有点不太清楚这部片到底“想讲什么”，好险最后面有救回来
剧情虽然悬浮 但其中的真情真的很感动 为永野芽郁的哭戏加一颗星
还没看书，但是后面真的被感动到了。一部很温情的电影。
电影关于三个爸爸的主线比较完整，个人觉得有些部分(比如优子和早瀬的感情线、家人起初反对最后又很自然地同意结婚、以及梨花妈妈心路历程等等)有点不太合理。一部温暖有爱的电影，永野芽郁演得很棒。虽然名为爱的接力棒，但是看完会觉得展现了一个爱的乌托邦，温暖有爱但现实中不太可能全部发生。
有感动流泪了，虽然从创意、剧作、表演、镜头都没有特别惊艳的地方，剧情还有点狗血，但感情还是有代入感的。

烂得好笑也是一种优点吧。。
还是忍不住看完啦。论如何拥有两个完美接盘侠的故事。童话滤镜也挺好的，冈田弟弟和咩酱是我盼望已久的cp没错了，只不过两个人的40岁造型是怎么回事啊
对于足够强大的人来说，就是一份真挚的感情会打动他们。对于他们来说学习爱也是一种享受。但是电影就是电影，人们向往希望世界是美好的而不是现实中的残酷
「卿何如我？」「我與我周旋久，寧作我。」如果被社會和人際所接納的，完全是另一個我的話，對生存意義的倫理拷問就變得尖銳棘手，那我還要「寧作我」，還是索性讓渡所有意味著「意義」的社會身分屬性？如果拼盡全力換來的也不過是一個根本不接納自我的環境，會不會就陷在環島逆行道上永遠無法動彈？PS：醫生的英式口音真的好討打⋯⋯
理智又荒诞，可怜又可怖。前半段跌宕起伏，后半段开始刨深度。凯伦·吉兰机器人一样的表演，符合角色，但也让人觉得呆板无味。很棒的故事，但女主太怪也太蠢。
十元的演技太吓人了……比小姑娘还差……其他人都很适合
我竟然看哭了并突然get到十元的演技。咩酱真的是可可爱爱，戏里戏外的。
看之前就很好奇两个女主的母女cp，看完了回头发现，好像完全没有同框呢
永野芽郁和石原里美居然某些角度还挺像的，真是奇妙。毕业典礼那段钢琴的哭戏还挺感动的😢
导演显然对于暴力有种并不狂热但又软性的迷恋，比自卫的艺术更像初期的兰斯莫斯，把荒诞合理化，并将现实生活中的感性抽离。克隆技术的伦理问题的就稍微拓展了那么一点，实际上还是在讽刺高速运转并不在乎个体存亡的世界的阴暗面，毫不掩饰的厌世和社会恐惧。
小说应该会处理的很好，一个没有办法成为母亲的人身上的母爱光环，但是电影叙事节奏有问题，故事没有讲好，人物弧光也没有成功。
婚纱造型也很好看，咩这部剧和宠女的衣服都很可
荒诞、冷酷、黑色幽默，让我想起了《龙虾》。
